windows 8 taskbar

i dont know if this is the same thing. but im trying to find out how to show the taskbar when youve opened an app or on a web browser ( i cant see the time ) i found something but it says something about multiple displays in the properties and i cant see that?

Taskbar is only available on desktop. You press win-key to go to a start screen from whatever place you are now. You press a win-key and letter D to go to desktop with a taskbar. There are several useful win-key plus something combinations that make it faster to get around in W8.

I think if you have more than one monitor/display you can choose to have the Metro Start screen on one and the desktop open on the other.
You would 'extend' the display on to a second monitor, rather than clone.

You can get live tiles which display the time. But obviously you can't see any live tiles or taskbar when you have a Metro app running full screen.

Stardock do a utility prog called ModernMix, that allows you to run Metro apps in a window on the desktop, so you could set them so the taskbar was always visible.http://www.stardock.com/products/modernmix/
